Lot 1084
1863 Pattern dime, Judd-331, Pollock-402, Rarity-7. Nickel or silver-nickel alloy, reeded edge. . J-331. PCGS graded Proof 64. The obverse of this curious pattern is the regular issue seated dime, but without the date. On the reverse, the design is plain and simple, and states POSTAGE CURRENCY; 10 CENTS 1863; ACT JULY 1862. Apparently this is the only example of this pattern graded by PCGS, and naturally it is the finest, as well as the worst, graded. Obviously, this is a very rare issue, which is seldom encountered. Hazy gray toning on both sides, clean surfaces and fields, with a small speck near Liberty's face.
Estimated Value $1,500 - 2,000.
With a small white envelope with the price $90, from many years ago.
